TROUBLE is feared among the half

cssIoned by an attempt to collect taxes
from the half breeds by OBTAINING their
stock, whereupon they came armed
to St. Johns, several hundred strong,
and retook the stock. Many OF these
Indians were with Riel In the late

The Citizens OF Lawrence Township Say
Enlarge the Fair Grounds.
The Fulton Signal Of this week con-
tanned the following, which Is submit
ted without comment: 3.
A Canton correspondent to the Massil-
lon Independent, makes complaints
about his own booming city, and among
other things he says: "If the Agricul-
tural Society want the ground enlarged
let the society do it themselves, not tax
the whole county. Other towns In
Stark county have fairs and they don't
ask the county to buy them q fair
ground, and why should Canton ask It,
Before the Commissioners levy any tax
they should let the people Of the county
vote on 1t. think they would save any
further action. The taxes are high
enough without buying Playground for
Canton"
Fine argument, that, to ask the agri-
cultural board, who give their time and
labor free, that the fair may be success,
to pay for the ground themselves II they
wish additional room. We were always
led to believe that the fair was county
institution, and that any other township
had, or ought to have, as much right
and interest In Its management and
success as Canton, city or township. The
majority of the board of managers are
composed of members from the country
townships, and if they are not Satisfied
with the present mode Of conducting
affairs they can vote for a change. Old
Molly Stark ranks among the best coun
ties In the State and can, If people will
only take interest, have an annual fair
oxcelled by none. Lawrence, the west
end township, Is willing to do her part
In making the coming fair the best
county fair ever held In the State. Give
US the additional ground, less jeal-
Ousy, more union Of action, and our big
fairs will be bigger still.

The Lights Nag Ahead.

The LIGHTS blue ribbon racer, while
standir & in front Of Haas & Oppenheim-
er's store hitched to his two wheeled
cart, switched the lines under his tail
and suddenly threw MIR. Lew Edwards
from the cart over his head Then the
horse broke the shafts and started for
the LIGHT office which he reached in 10
seconds, running very forcibly against
Capt. John Hambleton's horse and bug
gy and nearly causing another runaway.
Mr.. Edwards picked himself up, and
then reported the fact Of the runaway
to his colleague Mr.. Henry Schumacher,
who was collecting bill In one Of the
stores. Together they brought the cart
home, picking up bits of harness and
shaft on the way and when they came
in, Mr.. Edwards hair, formerly
thrush-brown, had turned iron gray all
around the bald spot.

CLAUS Spreckels, Enormous Income.

Claus Spreckels' Enormous Income.
Geo W. Fitch in the Sept Cosmopolitan.
When to this is added the fact that
he pays not one cent Of duty on this
crude sugar brought from the Islands,
some idea of the enormous profits of the
business may be gained. 1t was esti-
mated three years ago, when the bust
ness was at its height, that Spreckels
made six hundred barrels of sugar every
day, each barrel worth thirty dollars,
thus giving him a daily revenue Of
eighteen thousand dollars, or six million
five hundred and seventy thousand dol
lars year. His profits were clear
ten dollars on every barrel, making his
yearly income two million one
hundred and ninety thousand dol
lars. Now, however, the profits
have dwindled sadly, as the railroad
company can no longer make specia
contracts with him, and rival sugar
refining company is competing with
him for the control of the sugar interests
on the islands. King Kalakaua, after
borrowing three quarters of a million
from Spreckels, has recently negotiated
loan of two million dollars with
English capitalists, proceeding
that led to violent quar-
rel between the monarch and
his money lender. SO long, however, as
the reciprocity treaty with Hawii con-
tinues in force, Spreokles will coin
money out OF his sugar interests. 1t is
estimated that he is worth $25, 000, 900, a
large part of which is invested in plant
ations, machinery, steamships, and sail
ing vessels.
